DTEK Energy’s machine-building enterprises manufactured and repaired 1,707 units of mining equipment in January-June 2025, including four new roadheaders for mining, according to the energy holding’s press service.
According to a press release on Tuesday, machine builders also manufactured 1.2 million spare parts and components.
As reported, in the first half of 2024, 757 units of mining equipment were manufactured and repaired, including eight new roadheaders and cleaning combines.
At the same time, 542,000 spare parts and components were produced. “DTEK Energy’s machine builders are actively manufacturing equipment and providing miners with the necessary spare parts.
This allows Ukrainian mines to steadily extract coal so that thermal power generation can confidently get through the summer peak loads and enter the next heating season more reliably,” said DTEK Energy CEO Alexander Fomenko in a press release.
DTEK Energy’s machine-building assets include the Druzhkivka Machine-Building Plant (relocated to Dnipro in 2022), the Svitlo Shakhtaria plant in Kharkiv, and the Pershotravne RMB.
As reported, in the first half of 2025, DTEK Energy invested UAH 2.9 billion in Ukrainian coal mining, while in 2024, investments in Ukrainian mines amounted to about UAH 7.5 billion, and over the last three years (2022-2024) – UAH 18 billion.
Since the beginning of this year, DTEK Energy miners have put seven new coal seams into operation.
DTEK Energy provides a closed cycle of coal-fired power generation. As of January 2022, the company’s installed thermal generation capacity was 13.3 GW. A complete production cycle has been established in coal mining: coal extraction and enrichment, machine building, and maintenance of mining equipment.
In January-March this year, DTEK Energy’s machine builders manufactured and repaired nearly 806 units of mining equipment, including three new shearers for mining operations.
According to the energy holding in a press release on Thursday, the machine builders also provided the mines with more than 527,000 spare parts and components.
“We have completed this heating season and are already preparing a more reliable support for the next winter. To do this, power engineers continue to restore the power plant 24/7, miners provide fuel for thermal generation, and machine builders support them with all the necessary equipment,” said Alexander Fomenko, CEO of DTEK Energy.
According to the report, DTEK Energy’s miners commissioned the first three new coal faces in January-March.
As reported, in 2024, the company’s investments in Ukrainian coal mining amounted to UAH 7.5 billion, and over the past three years (2022-2024) – UAH 18 billion. The funds were allocated for the construction and repair of capital mine workings, completion of coal longwalls, mine tunneling equipment, underground mine transport and production capacity support projects.
“DTEK Energy provides a closed cycle of electricity generation from coal. The company’s installed capacity in thermal generation amounted to 13.3 GW as of January 2022. The company has established a full production cycle in coal mining: coal mining and enrichment, mechanical engineering and maintenance of mine equipment.
